L Lawliet Story
Raised in Wammy’s House — an orphanage for gifted children — L was groomed by Watari to become the ultimate detective. He solved his first case at age 8 and soon controlled global law enforcement from the shadows.
In Death Note, L identifies Kira (Light) within weeks using a televised trap. He forms the Task Force, handcuffs himself to Light, and engages in a psychological war. Despite deducing Light’s identity, L is outmaneuvered by Rem and dies of a heart attack — 33 days after writing his own name in the Death Note (a contingency).
His legacy lives through Near and Mello.
Personality Traits
L is eccentric, brilliant, and socially detached:
Sweet Tooth – Consumes sugar constantly (cake, candy, jam on everything).
Posture – Sits hunched; claims it boosts reasoning by 40%.
Blunt – Says exactly what he thinks (e.g., “I am childish, and I hate losing”).
Justice-Driven – Believes in fairness, even for criminals.
